Question
Which of the following quantities has not been expressed in proper unit?
A.
torque, newton metre
B.
stress, newton $${\text{metr}}{{\text{e}}^{ - 2}}$$
C.
modulus of elasticity, newton $${\text{metr}}{{\text{e}}^{ - 2}}$$
D.
surface tension, newton $${\text{metr}}{{\text{e}}^{ - 2}}$$
Answer :
surface tension, newton $${\text{metr}}{{\text{e}}^{ - 2}}$$
Solution :
Surface tension
$$S = \frac{{{\text{Force}}}}{{{\text{Length}}}} = \frac{N}{m} = N{m^{ - 1}}$$
